wearehere browser extension scans sites for tracking and privacy risks
wearehere is a browser extension that scans websites you visit and scores them based on privacy and tracking behaviors, turning the tables on the data collection that typically targets users.
What it scans
The extension performs ten different scans on each site:
- Cookies — how many they drop, who set them, how long they last
- Network — every domain your browser contacts behind your back
- Trackers — hidden scripts from companies you've never heard of
- Profiling — fingerprinting your device through canvas, WebGL, fonts
- Pressure — dark patterns engineered to rush or guilt you into clicking
- Terms — toxic clauses buried in policies they know you won't read
- Stored data — tracking IDs hidden where cookie clears can't reach
- Watching — scripts stealing your form inputs before you hit submit
- Clicks — links routing through tracking redirects before reaching the page
- Selling data — data brokers detected in your network traffic
Technical details
The extension is under 200KB with no frameworks, no cloud dependencies, and no account required. Nothing leaves your browser — it reads what your browser already knows and presents the information. Results are color-coded: green means clean, red means leave, with a full dashboard available for evidence.
AI agent integration
wearehere also ships as an npm package and pairs with barebrowse, an MCP server that gives AI agents a real browser. barebrowse lets your agent navigate, click, fill forms, and take screenshots through Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP-compatible assistant. With wearehere added, your agent can privacy-audit any URL before interacting with it.
Example use case: "Assess this site before I sign up." Your agent browses the page, runs the ten scans, and returns with a score and evidence. If it's red, it doesn't proceed — enabling privacy-aware browsing at the agent level.
Development background
This is the finale of the weare____ series — eight extensions that each pulled back a different curtain, now combined into one scan: wearecooked, wearebaked, weareleaking, wearelinked, wearewatched, weareplayed, wearetosed, and wearesilent.
The extension will be available soon on Chrome extension and Firefox Add-ons stores, and is fully open source on GitHub.
